Evil Genius 1.01 Patch

November 11, 2004 1:50 PM

The first Evil Genius patch has been released, updating the US retail edition to v1.01. Fixes several game bugs, though to completely fix them you need to start a new game instead of loading a saved game. Thanks 3D Gamers.

Grrrrrrrr they should really provide some way to convert old save games to the new version.

  Yeah no kidding. While really fun, the game moves painfully slow at times. Having to start over is not my idea of a good time....

    yeah. that sucks. I was pretty far along too. Oh well. I was half tempted to start over anyway. Maybe after I tire of WoW, I'll give it a go again.

      I was able to finish the game quite fine without the patch. Just keep on goin'.

  According to the FAQs, some of the 'research path broken' bugs can be fixed by hacking your savegames. It's possible that the patch is incompatible with old saves because making things work would involve editing old saves, and the developers don't want to mess with that.
